USMCBillsFan Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 I think the judges (Randy and Paula) are trying to push hard for a Spaz and Yamin final. They have been way too hard on Kat the last few weeks and I think she's the best of the rest. They sit and drop on everyone for being too "karaoke" but Spaz sounds karaoke every time he sings. Nobody will buy his album or Yamin's.... Idol lost out huge when Chris went home IMHO. I don't vote, but I watch and I will buy Chris's cd when it comes out. I think there's no doubt the show is rigged and Kat will be the unfortunate victim this week. F-U Randy with your ghetto wanna be ass and Paula who's one snort away from heart failure. Thank God for Simon who is the only true voice of reason and the only one who seems to support Kat.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyhow, I really don't see this as being fixed, at least when it comes to the voting, do I think the judges push for one thing or another, hell yes, but the results are the results (IMHO). Here is the thing, spend one day in Richmond Virginia, this town could have a bomb go off and Elliot would lead the news, local radio this morning is talking to people that voted over 600 times last night. This my friends is a popularity contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothrop Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Yamin needs to go home. He is boring beyond belief and will make for a lackluster finale. 692784[/snapback] He looks like he is singing with a gun to his head. Its as though there is somone off stage with a laser-sight on his temple yelling, "sing monkey-boy! SING!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Ok, so I've noticed this several times this season, but tonight I was able to prove this theory to myself. During the recaps they are not showing the actual performances that the idols did a few minutes earlier. My take is that they are using the dress rehearsel footage for various reasons. I just watched Spazz's recap and then backed up the tivo to the last song and it was a little different. Even in the camera spin around the judges desks are manned by others and not Randy and company. My take is that they rehearse infront of a studio audience, but keep the judges out so they give an honest opinion. I would imagine for editing purposes its easier to take the rehearsal footage and compile the recap earlier in the night then to do it as the show is airing live. Anyone else notice. 692707[/snapback] They usually only use dress rehearsal footage for the last few contestants on each show (e.g., they recap the live performance of singers 1-9, but the dress reshearsal for #10). But when they're down to 3 or so, it appears they use only the dress rehearsal footage, because there isn't enough time to compile the recap footage from the live performances.

Rico Posted May 17, 2006 Author Share Posted May 17, 2006 Simon was on Leno Monday... some great slams, don't know if the "surprise" was staged or not, but it looked pretty real to me. Broadband only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#89 Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 Chris is gone I DON'T CARE Kat should have gone last week. She is just another singer except she has brown hair instead of blonde. blah,blah,blah boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted May 17, 2006 Author Share Posted May 17, 2006 Spaz & McFunbags should make for an interesting final(especially if Paula is drunk or high again ). Yamin needs to go home. He is boring beyond belief and will make for a lackluster finale. 692784[/snapback] They better have paramedics ready for her if Yamin leaves tonight.

Kat is more than just "another singer". She is probably the only one left on the show who's throat can qualify as a true musical instrument. She is certainly not perfect but has great control, range, sings in key, has soul, falsetto voice, and tonal quality. This is from a long time musician and singer with a very critical ear for what it's worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFanInTexas Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 They're all pretty bad, but Yamin is the worst of the bad ones. Mark my words - he's going home tonight. Spaz - 39% vote Kat - 32% vote Goat Boy - 29% of vote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you close your eyes and can't see her sexy moves and looks into the camera, she is just another singer. Unfortunately so many just vote by what the judges say.

Mark Vader Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 It's time for Elliott to go, his luck has carried him much further than it should have. I believe that Taylor will be the next American Idol. That's just a guess on my part, and also he has never been in the bottom 3. Katharine could still win it all. She has been one of the stronger performers this season. There were a couple of times where she was not at her best, but she has never been terrible. I do'nt think that many people realise or appreciate how strong of a voice she has.

She is anything but "just another singer". Yamin sounds a lot more like "just another singer" to me. Or someone like me is "just another singer" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted May 17, 2006 Author Share Posted May 17, 2006 I think McFunbags may have some vocal chops but her sense of timing and phrasing is horrible. Kinda like comparing Whitney Houston to Bob Dylan... Whitney had the much better voice, but Dylan is the much better singer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEY were the only ones who sang on-key the whole time. 693219[/snapback] Elliot and Chris were indeed always on key (good ear cable! ) though that is only one component. Elliot was lacking (IMO) in the tonal quality and dynamics departments, while Chris still needed to find a voice other than what has already been done by the lead singer from the band Live. Kat may have fell short on pitch for one or two quick moments during the whole competition, so I'd give her that considering all the other qualities.

LabattBlue Posted May 18, 2006 Share Posted May 18, 2006 I know anything is possible, but it is unbelievable that the 3 contestants ended up within 1 percent of each other after millions of votes have been totaled. The good news is Spaz lives for another week. He needs to raise his "spaz" level higher than it has ever been before. GO SPAZ!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
